Island Grilled Bananas
From The American Diabetes Association's Flavorful Seasons Cookbook
ADA Bookstore: 1-800-232-6733
Prep: 10 min, Cook: 30 min.
  • 4 small bananas
  • 2 Tbs. dark rum
  • 1 tsp. coconut extract
  • 2 tsp. brown sugar

Make a small slit into the skin of each banana. Cut through 1/4 inch of each banana and drizzle in some of the rum, extract, and sugar. Close up the skin with a toothpick. Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set 6 inches above the heat source. On a gas grill, set the heat to medium. Grill the bananas in their skins for about 30-35 minutes until the skins are blackened and the bananas are hot. Slit each banana and push the ends in to fluff up. Eat like a baked potato, directly from the skin.
